Voyage: Prop Master on the Straw Hat

Is the final destination finally arriving?

Just as the Straw Hat Pirates were slowly approaching Alabasta.

Another direction, on a certain sea area also heading towards Alabasta.

A warship with a seagull flag flying on the mast is cutting through the waves.

“Straw Hat Pirates, prop master…”

At the front of the deck, there was a tall silver man with a ferocious face and downcast eyes. He had three cigars in his mouth and spoke in a depressed and heavy tone.

Recalling the humiliation of being trapped in a small bottle that day, Smoker, who had deep impressions and unforgettable memories, couldn’t help but clenched his fists.

“Are you heading to Alabasta? Then let’s settle it there!!”

Smoker looked deeply at the sea ahead.

“But Colonel Smoker…”

The cute girl Dasqi wearing black-rimmed glasses next to her was a little hesitant:

“Alabasta is a member country of the World Government and one of the few powerful countries in the world. Moreover, there is Crocodile of the Shichibukai, the king of Alabasta. We did not have any instructions or say hello to each other, so we acted so rashly. If you get closer, will it…”

Dasqi couldn’t continue talking midway through, because she saw Smoker looking over with a death gaze.

“Alabasta is currently overwhelmed by the many rebellions that have occurred within the country. As for Crocodile, it is just a Shichibukai. There is no need to report the actions of our navy to the Shichibukai!!”

Smoker sincerely refused to deal with these Shichibukai, and he had met Crocodile before, so he didn’t even want to offend him.

Seeing that his persuasion was fruitless, Dasqi could only obey the order silently.

The warship slowly moved towards Alabasta.

On the other side, on the sea, a small boat was also following.

On the small boat, there was sitting a shirtless man wearing only a pair of black shorts and some freckles on his face.

He was sitting there, holding a piece of grilled fish in his hand. He had already brought the food to his mouth. As a result, his mouth was wide open and bubbles were coming from his nostrils.

“Huu~huhu~”

A series of purring sounds came from his mouth.

From the looks of it, he must have fallen asleep there while eating.

Snapped!

The bubble suddenly burst, and the freckled man’s eyes opened.

“Ah, did you fall asleep again?!”

He rubbed his sleepy eyes, then lazily raised his arms and pressed the cowboy hat on his forehead.

The blue round crying smiley face logo on the front edge of the hat looks so special in the sunlight.

“Almost there, Alabasta?”

The freckled-faced man opened his mouth and took a bite of the grilled fish, which was already cold even when he fell asleep.

A ball of flame instantly rose from his fingers, wrapping the grilled fish again.

“I wonder if Luffy and the others will also go there… I haven’t seen him for several years, right? I’m really looking forward to it. It seems that he remembered something, and an optimistic and warm smile appeared on the corner of the freckled-faced man’s mouth.

The boat underfoot was also moving slowly towards Alabasta.

“You mean a hero?!!”

Nami confirmed that she heard correctly and looked at Weiwei in surprise.

“Crocodar is your Alabasta hero?”

Approaching Alabasta, no matter how much the group despised Crocodile strategically, they still had to show the most basic respect to this great pirate tactically.

After all, the other party can be considered a member of the King’s Shichibukai.

After asking Weiwei for specific information about Crocodile, the results were quite surprising to everyone.

“The King’s Shichibukai are actually seven great pirates selected from the navy by the World Government to increase deterrence and consolidate its rule.” Seeing everyone’s surprise, Link also followed the popular science and said:

“In other words, these seven great pirates can be regarded as being inherited by the World Government. With the endorsement of the World Government, the people will naturally believe it.” It is not so much that the people believe that the pirates have become heroes. People who believe in world government become heroes.

Simple pirates and the Shichibukai are actually different.

The Shichibukai is like those green forest heroes who were recruited by the imperial court to become Jiedushi in a certain big coward on the planet of Link’s previous life.

They all relied on their strong soldiers and horses, or their strong strength, in exchange for recruitment and official status.

However, no matter what you say, it cannot change the basic fact that they are essentially pirates.

and……

“No matter how much he behaves with a sense of justice, it’s only been less than four years, right?”

Suddenly, Usopp, who had been listening next to him, had a slightly subtle look in his eyes.

“A nation of citizens would rather believe in a pirate they have been with for less than four years, but they are unwilling to believe the royal family of Alabasta that has treated them kindly for decades or even centuries…

“Are these people so stupid?”

Little Chopper next to him also blurted out doubts.

Indeed, according to normal people’s thinking, isn’t this a very abnormal thing for a pirate to become a partner of justice? There must be something fishy about it, right?

Moreover, the Neferitaru royal family of Alabasta has been managing the country conscientiously and diligently over the years, bringing comfort and peace to the people.

Result~~~

Hundreds of years of sincerity cannot be exchanged for four years of pretending to be a pirate? ! !

To be honest, even Link couldn’t describe what the citizens of Alabasta were thinking.

I can only say that they are too stupid…and simple.

And the most important thing is that the Neferitaru royal family did not notice anything was wrong.

After the riots broke out in the country, no effective actions were taken.

Such a royal family is kind, but…

“It just seems a little too boring.”

This sentence was a bit too hurtful, so Link kept it in his heart and did not say it out loud.

Weiwei could only show a forced smile. It was hard for the people to judge her as a princess.

“In other words, the root of the problem lies with Crocodile, right?”

When Sanji was thinking about the problem, he still lit a cigarette for himself.

“They pretend to be heroes on the surface to gain support, and they secretly set up a secret criminal company to frame you and cause turmoil and rebellion in the country.” He exhaled a breath of smoke, “In short, as long as Crocodile is solved, everything will be over.” The problems are all solved, right? ”

“・・’If you analyze it this way, it is indeed the case.”

Nami nodded lightly.

“As long as you chop him off (fight him away), it’ll be fine.”

Luffy and Zoro, two guys who thought about things very simply, had only this idea in their minds.

However, this is also a very direct, crude, and easiest way to solve the problem.

Of course, this road is also almost the most difficult.

“It would be great if we could quell the rebellion without fighting, let the citizens realize the true face of Crocodile, and then drive out the Baroque Working Group.”

Weiwei also sat down and hugged her legs, still holding on to unrealistic fantasies.

She was still unwilling to face reality, and it wasn’t until she was in Yuba that she was completely awakened by Luffy’s words, “There is no war where people don’t die.”

Thereby realizing the cruelty of reality and becoming mature.

In other words, Luffy before the New World was completely wise and foolish, and he also understood very practical principles.

It can even be said that in some aspects, he is similar to Nohara Shinnosuke, with the same sense of reason and gentleness.

It’s just that he and Xiaoxin are almost opposite extremes in most of their personalities…

Link thought of these thoughts, then shook his head to drive these thoughts away.

“How can it be so easy to make everything go according to your own ideas?”

Link walked up to Weiwei and patted her shoulder.

The latter raised his head and said, “Is it really impossible? Even if it means stopping the rebellion first…”

“Yes, Link!!”

Nami seemed to have thought of something, and immediately clapped her hands:

“Do you have any relevant props that can stop this war? Such as [Stop War Planes]?!!”

When Weiwei heard this, her eyes were shining with hope, and she looked at Link longingly.

“[Stop the war machine] Of course I don’t have one here. Do you think I’m a god and can conjure up whatever props I want?”

Link was also a little speechless.

But when he saw Weiwei’s eyes, the look on her eyes changed from the original expectations and expectations to disappointment and gloom~

Link paused, then continued, “But there are some props in my hand that can indeed make it more convenient and easier for us to solve this matter.” His eyes flickered, “Not all of them Things and troubles require real fighting to resolve.”

“You know, some troubles and problems can be invisible and easily disintegrated.”

“The battlefield without gunpowder smoke may become more terrifying.”

He seemed to have thought of something (Wang’s good), and the corners of his mouth curved slightly.

“Is that so?!”

Although others didn’t quite understand what Link meant, for some reason, when everyone saw Link’s confident smile, they all felt relieved and no longer had any anxiety or worries.

With Link here, almost all troubles can be solved.

“Then what are you going to do?!”

Luffy, who was teasing little Von Clay there, also raised his head and asked.

“Such a violent rebellion in a superpower like this cannot be easily solved through verbal persuasion.”

Sanji also said something.

Just two days ago, they saw news in the newspaper that 200,000 royal troops had defected and surrendered to the rebel forces in the kingdom in Alabasta.

The scale of this rebellion has reached a point where it can be solved with more than just persuasion.

The reason for this situation and the rebellion of so many kings and rebels was that Crocodile sent people from the Baroque Working Group to lurk in it to stir up trouble.

On the other hand, these stupid…simple people have great distrust of the king and the royal family.

If you reach this point, just using simple words will never work.

If you want to stop the war and destroy Crocodile’s conspiracy, you can only get powerful information.

The first point is the simplest, crudest and most direct method. Defeat Crocodile and all problems will be solved.

In other words, it is to let the sky rain on the right occasion, so that the people in the desert who have different beliefs about rain can calm down and listen to Weiwei’s explanation.

In addition, conclusive evidence can also be produced to prove that this is an out-and-out careerist conspiracy, so that everyone can understand the reality.

There are three roads, none of which are easy to follow.

but–

“When the time comes, let me try it first.”

Link explained to everyone with a smile.

“I happen to have some effective props in my hand. Let’s see if I can use them when the time comes.”

Thank you readers for your support and love. I have also seen the opinions of many big bosses. I will seriously consider the next plot. Thank you for your valuable opinions. Thank you! ! .

Ashore! 【Yanskimo Baby Bottle】! ! The so-called [travel brother]

Anyway, the ultimate result that cannot be achieved by all actions is to fight.

Then before fighting, you can try the other methods first.
